Differential concentration discharge for the upper and lower reaches of the East River Watershed, Colorado
This dataset captures the difference in concentration over the difference in discharge across upper and lower reaches of the East River watershed for 2015 and 2016 water years. The East River is part of the Watershed Function Scientific Focus Area (WFSFA) located in the Upper Colorado River Basin, U
The Importance of Interflow to Groundwater Recharge in a Snowmelt-Dominated, Alpine Watershed, Geophysical Research Letters: Modeling and Data Package
This data package contains hydrologic modeling input and output files for the East River (ER_PRMS.zip) and Copper Creek (CC_GSFLOW.zip) for water years 1987 to 2018. These data were used to generate simulated results published in Geophysical Research Letters (Carroll et al., 2019) describing the imp
Conifer water use patterns in the East River Watershed, Colorado US, based on stable water isotopes and cellulose isotopes
This data package contains a series of datasets aimed at understanding the seasonal origins of water used by the dominant conifer species, Abies lasiocarpa and Picea engelmannii, in the East River Watershed. There is a distinct difference in the stable isotopic ratio of summer rain and snowpack and

Hybrid predictive modeling approach simulated evapotranspiration and ecosystem respiration data
This dataset includes measured data used for developing hybrid-predictive-modeling (HPM) approach and simulated evapotranspiration and ecosystem respiration data across several Fluxnet sites, Snow Telemetry (SNOTEL) sites and East River Watershed in Colorado locations. Fluxnet sites considered in th

Natural abundance nitrate isotopes from Rifle and the East River Watershed, Colorado
This data package provides data on the natural abundance isotopes of nitrate from various sources, including porewater, stream, and precipitation. The overall purpose of this data package is to complement additional data streams for nitrogen cycling metrics (e.g., riverine inorganic and organic nitr
Elevational variation of quinolizidine alkaloid contents in a lupine (<i>Lupinus argentus</i>) of the Rocky Mountains
The behavioral effects of intraspecific predation on larval tiger salamanders: an investigation of life history variation in montane populations of <i>Ambystoma tigrinum</i>
Organization of crustacean epizoan communities in a change of subalpine ponds
Microclimate amelioration may be critical to recovery of subalpine ecosystems (Colorado)
Competition for pollination in two montane plants: visitation and pollen load differences in <i>Ipomopsis aggregata</i> and <i>Castilleja linarifolia</i>
The effect of global warming on soil mesofauna
The spatial arrangement of the alpine ant <i>Formica neorufibarbis</i>
Anthophilous fly distribution across an elevation gradient
-Flower-visiting Diptera are abundant in montane and Arctic areas. This research, conducted on the western slope of the Colorado Rocky Mountains: (1) characterizes the predominant anthophilous fly taxa in comparison with other high-elevation and highlatitude sites; (2) examines changes in fly abunda
